to Ford, they showed interest too. The three-hour meeting at Ford headquarters
in Detroit, chairman of Ford (Bill Ford) said to Ratan Tata, “why did you enter in the passenger
car business when you were not knowing of it. It will be a favour if we
buy this business from you”.

very tense as the feeling of being insulted was on his mind.
After earlier failures, Tata Motors and ratan tata worked hard
day and night to improve this project and slowly turned down their efforts into
success. The result was tata motors did well with its business of passenger
